Rams trade 1st round pick to Patriots for Brandin Cooks

What would you suggest? Doesn't sound like OBJ wants to come here and we'd have to give up too much for Gronk. We badly need a redzone threat and some guards, but I don't think there are any options out there.

#Giants price tag for Beckham was too steep for the Rams. And Rams were most intent team. Perhaps #49ers step up now.

Only if the Giants lower their price... Substantially.
People on this board are going to somehow try and twist this into a bad move for the rams lmao.

Well guess people can stop worrying about Beckham now.

I don't think getting Cooks stops them from getting OBJ. Getting Peters didn't stop them from getting Talib.

What they gonna fart out a couple make believe 1st rd picks lol

If the 49ers are going to make a statement this is the time to do it. They need to make a trade to acquire more picks or for a big-time player.

Why? May as well wait for the draft. Rams blew there load already. No first, no second. We could easily move back from 9 to the teens and grab Davenport while adding yet another pick before the rams even start drafting. We already have 4 picks before they make there first pick late in the third.

It's 100% a bad move IF they don't do a deal with Cooks. He's a UFA in 2019.

I doubt they mortgage the future by trading 2019 and 2020 1st rd picks for Odell.

Would be beyond stupid to trade a 1st for 1-year of Brandin Cooks. He's a UFA next year. They must have a new long term deal for him already agreed to.

The Pats basically did the same thing, only he had the 5th yr option left(2018), but yeah I've never been a fan of trading for a player on a 1yr deal, unless it's cheap compensation we're giving up.

ftfy
Going for OBJ makes total sense now. The Giants may soften their stance as the draft nears.

Wouldn't the Sammy Watkins trade be considered a bad move now? They lost their 2nd this year while maybe getting a comp pick next year. Cooks trade on the surface seems like more of the same.
